I was reading the dycypter guid I have the file system with multi files how do i find the rigth file so i can back up the moive
When you switch the file mode to write in the top of the window there is a small folder click this and it will access your hard drive now depending on where your file was saved to you might have to browse your hard drive to find them. If you dont remember the name of the file you can switch back to read mode and put the movie(s) you looking for back in the drive and click start then it will say the file your about to write is already on the drive and give you the name and location of the file then just cancel without writing and reswitch to write mode and click on the folder. Now you will load the file and then put a blank media disk in the drive the write button will turn green after it checks the media and is happy with it. Your all set now.
Both of those movies should easily be backed up using AnyDVD or DVD43 (one or the other not both) running behind DVD Shrink. AnyDVD is available for a 21 day test drive, and can be found here: http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/dvd_rippers/anydvd.cfm DVD43 is a free prog and can be found here: http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/dvd_rippers/dvd43.cfm
@gbradley It is easy to loose a file. I used to do it all the time. I now have learned through painstaking experience that it is best, for me anyway, to create folders for every movie that I back up so that I can easily locate the file that I want to burn. I have a folder named DVD_Burns on my desktop. Inside that folder I create the movie folders like Stealth. It works for me.
i dowloaded dvd 43 i do i get it to work I am about to give up on these movies i tryed to get any dvd but i am not sure how to use it i am just used to shrink and dycrypter but it looks like they will be out dated soon. i got the lord of dog town to decrypt but shrink will not analize it. is any one familiar to alchol 120 and is it any good
There really is no guide to AnyDVD, its kinda a no brainer prog. If the little red fox is in you tray, just pop in the disc and it will strip the protection automatically. Open up DVD Shrink, go to Open Disc, and select the drive with your movie in it. viola! If the little red fox isn't in the tray, click on the AnyDVD icon on your desktop to get it running.
Lords of dogtown is a hard movie to copy, it can be done but because its so crappy I didnt even bother. The original is much better (dogtown and Z boys). However you need anydvd + any program to burn because it uses bad sector copy protection.
